  • Contact Center apps in the Zoom client (Zoom Apps SDK path)
  • Web channel embeds (chat/video/campaign)
  • Native mobile SDKs (Android/iOS)

Official docs:

Routing Guardrail

  • If the user is building an app inside the Zoom Contact Center desktop client, stay on the Zoom Apps SDK path and use this skill plus
    zoom-apps-sdk
    .
  • If the user is embedding chat/video widgets on a website, route to web/SKILL.md.
  • If the user is integrating native Android or iOS SDK binaries, route to android/SKILL.md or ios/SKILL.md.
  • If the user needs Contact Center call-control or queue APIs, chain with ../rest-api/SKILL.md.

Common Lifecycle Pattern

  1. Initialize platform context early.
  2. Build a channel item (
    entryId
    for chat/video/ZVA,
    apiKey
    for scheduled callback and campaign flows).
  3. Get service/client instance.
  4. Register listeners/delegates before user interaction.
  5. Start flow (
    fetchUI
    ,
    startVideo
    , or web SDK open/show path).
  6. Handle engagement state changes (
    start
    ,
    hold
    ,
    resume
    ,
    end
    ) and context switching.
  7. End flow and release resources (
    endChat
    /
    endVideo
    ,
    logout/logoff
    , uninitialize/release).

High-Level Scenarios

  • Agent side-panel app that stores notes per
    engagementId
    and survives context switching.
  • Browser chat/video campaigns launched from web tags.
  • Native mobile customer app for chat/video/scheduled callback.
  • Campaign-driven channel selection (chat, ZVA, video, scheduled callback).
  • Rejoin flow for dropped video engagements on mobile.
  • Smart Embed CRM softphone with postMessage event contracts.
